Stencil size: 709 mm x 555 mm
ALPHA tensoRED
New four-sided tensioning system, which tensions Tetrabond and VectorGuard stencils with up to 45 N/cm². The tensioning system works purely mechanically without compressed air. To tension the stencil, a charging station is needed.
- 23" x 23" Master Frame
External dimension: 584 mm x 584 mm
Stencil size: 555 mm x 555 mm
- 29" x 23" Master Frame
External dimension: 736 mm x 584 mm
Stencil size: 709 mm x 555 mm
Master Frames are adaptable to 736 x 736 mm²
Quattro-Flex II-3
This four-sided quick-tensioning system holds the license-free stencil tensioned by means of compressed air. Pressure reducers allow for continuous and precise control of the stencil tensioning:
- Square
External dimension: 584 mm x 566 mm
Adaptable to: 736 mm x 736 mm
Stencil size: 555,5 mm x 555,5 mm
- Rectangular
External dimension: 720 mm x 584 mm
Adaptable to: 736 mm x 736 mm
Stencil size: 709,5 mm x 555,5 mm
Quattro-Flex-3
The new system is used with a loading station, without hold-down borders. The loading station can be dispensed with when using BECsnap stencils for QuattroFlex. The frame is slightly lighter than its predecessor and offers a 5-mm larger squeegee blade area circumferentially:
- Square
External dimensions: 584 mm x 566 mm
Adapable to: 736 mm x 736 mm
Stencil size 555,5 mm x 555,5 mm
- Rectangular
External dimensions: 720 mm x 584 mm
Adapable to: 736 mm x 736 mm
Stencil size: 709,5 mm x 555,5 mm
AlphaTetra
The four-sided spring tensioning system is suitable for stencils
with AlphaTetra, MicroMount or the patented BEC100 edge perforation:
- 23" x 23"
External dimensions: 584 mm x 584 mm
Adaptable to: 736 mm x 736 mm
Stencil size: 558 mm x 558 mm
- 29" x 23"
External dimensions: 736 mm x 584 mm
Adaptable to: 736 mm x 736 mm
Stencil size: 711 mm x 558 mm
ZelFlex Z4P
This four-sided quick-tensioning system uses compressed air to tension the license-free stencil. A permanent supply of compressed air is not necessary for this; the compressed air supply can be removed immediately after tensioning the stencil:
- Small
External dimensions: 558 mm x 558 mm
Stencil size: 520 mm x 520 mm
- Standard
External dimensions: 584 mm x 584 mm
Stencil size: 546 mm x 546 mm
- Large
External dimensions: 736 mm x 736 mm
Stencil size: 698 mm x 598 mm
Reliable quick-tensioning frames for SMT stencils
Achieve highly accurate results with quick-tensioning systems
Quick-tensioning frames ensure a good and evenly fixation of the SMD stencil. Efficiency, precise printing results and comprehensive process reliability are particulary important. The stencil is ready for use quickly and can be archived space saving easily. We offer quick-tesnioning frames of differtn types such as VectorGuard, Quattroflex, ZelFlex and AlphaTetra. You benefit from the latest technologies in tensioning frame technology, always up to date.
VectorGuard
VectorGuard quick tension frames are a common solution for industrial stencil printing. The proven spring system guarantees consistent tensioning as well as changeover with ease. It is offered in two versions. The classic VectorGuard frame, cost-efficient and versatile in its use, is the proven companion for SMT processes. The VectorGuard High Tension, on the other hand, offers up to 65% higher tension, which favours a more even release of the stencil from the substrate and enables increased transfer efficiency of the solder paste.
Quattro-Flex
The Quattro-Flex quick-tensioning system is a maintenance-free frame that is operated with compressed air thus keeping the stencil permanently under tension. A compressed air connection in the paste printer is mandatory to ensure reliable stability of the stencils over a longer period of time. The latest generation of Quattro-Flex frames can be used with or without a charging station and offer space-saving, reliable and safe handling.
ZelFlex
The pneumatic ZelFlex tensioning frames score points for their handling with proven technology. The integrated compressed air reservoir keeps the stencil constantly tensioned for up to 24 hours. After fixing the stencil in the frame, the compressed air source is removed and is no longer required during the printing process.
AlpaTetra
In the four-sided AlphaTetra quick-tensioning frame, the stencil is held under tension by the mechanical spring clamping system and released on a pneumatic basis. Becktronic manufactures the matching stencils with the patented edge perforation BEC100, which is also available with edge protection as an option.
Alpha tensoRed
The Alpha tensoRed is similar to the VectorGuard frame, but without internal air tubes. This requires a mechanical loading station for inserting and removing the stencil from the frame.
Of course, BECKTRONIC manufacture SMD stencils for all standard quick-tensioninge frames - whether Quattro-Flex or VectorGuard, ZelFlex, AlphaTetra, Heeb, Metz or Paggen. Our stencil type BECsnap is a good choice for use in Quattro-Flex or VectorGuard frames.
We offer expert and independent advice. Together with you, we will find the optimal solution when choosing a quick-tensioning frame for your electronics production.
